ADT-1 Root without dev cord and I'm unable to get adb over wifi/ethernet to work

by Eremos77

As the title suggests I've been trying to root my ADT-1 (codename molly Site with info ) but I haven't been successful because: I do not have the power/usb "Y" cable, adb over wifi is no longer enabled by default and (from what I can tell) can't be enabled without first connecting via usb . I tried the usb 2.0 port via standard usb male to male cord but windows 10 says no drivers and zadig/device manager don't help. I'm sure there is something I'm overlooking, anyone feel like enlightening me?

Since (unfortunately but somewhat reassuringly) no one has told me I'm missing something obvious I am going to take it apart and see if I can do anything via serial console. More helpful info for anyone following along at home: link In the meantime does anyone have a dev cable they want to sell or trade for an ADT-1 ? I have 3 of them and while the aesthetic appeal is appreciated I don't think I'll make use of all three.

Please feel free to edit/remove this if it breaks the sub rules, I'm hoping it doesn't as I'm obviously not trying to make a profit or engage in capitalistic activity I just want to use my android tv device without current limitations.
